Midas was able to repair my AC system after several other shops told me they could not. I am super grateful for their kind and honest service and for the fact I did not feel I was being taken advantage of for not knowing everything about cars. The repair was reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend this shop to a friend. read more

Very kind employees! As a woman who knows nothing about cars it can be hard finding a place for routine maintenance. This Midas won't scam you. read more

Midas does my maintenance on my 10 year old vehicle. I have had my vehicle for that long with minimal issues and I owe it to Jose' at Midas. Jose' is my guy. My hubby and Jose' hit it right off 9 years ago and when my hubby finds someone he likes he supports the business because of them. Jose' is always friendly, always gives good customer service, and you can rest knowing if he's involved then you're in good hands. Today I came in for an AC issue and will come back to schedule an appointment to get my vehicle in. It's too hot in these streets to have ac issues. The value you get in quality care of your vehicle can't be priced but they are affordable. I highly recommend this business as Midas is a pioneer company but it's who works there makes the difference. I'm giving this a 5 star because of him. Ask for Jose' he's awesome read more

went in for an oil change, and the next day the bottom of my car ended up on the highway and I had to get a tow truck $250. highly don't recommend this place at all. Also will never confirm your appointment if you make it online. A blind man could have done my oil change better. read more

My 85 year old father is undergoing treatment for lung cancer. We were at Kaiser and had already had a complete tire blowout that morning on the 15. We made it to Kaiser on the spare. As we left, our spare went flat in front of Meidas. I don't know the name of the guy who was in charge, but he tried to inflate my ruined spare tire. My original tire that was in the truck earned a "Wow" because of how shredded it was. Meidas didn't have my tires, so he recommended a tire shop two blocks away, found an old spare and had it put on so we could get there, and was so kind and helpful. So was the guy who did the work. We made it to the tire shop, got our tires, and finally my dad could rest. In a day of bad luck, Meidas was a much-needed bright spot. read more

Good guys, they answer the phone, they don't put you on hold, they r able to accomodate you promptly and they explain everything to you, give you several options to choose from, even show you what's going on in your car. not to mention that Tom is a total mel Gibson double, even sounds like him! read more

I always get my car serviced here and it's great !!! Jose is one of the mechanics that always helps me out and is really good at his job !!! There's also another guy who works there I don't know his name but he has kinda long blonde hair and glasses he's so helpful as well :) good customer service all the way ! read more

Always have been coming here, and these guys are great! Quick, simple service, and very friendly staff.

Another great experience at Midas Speedee on Friars rd. San Diego. Everyone there is extremely professional and helpful. Every time I've been there, they take my vehicle right in fix it quickly and I'm on my way. They've kept my 2004 Honda Element running and tiptop shape! It's great to have someone trustworthy and experienced to take care of your vehicle. Thanks again to Jose, he's great! fantastic job! read more

I came to Midas because my car window got stuck and was not able to roll back up. They were very understanding and let me drop it off right before they closed so I could leave my car in their garage overnight, so it wouldn't be left out on the street outside of my apartment. They did a great job at a great price. I definitely would recommend! read more

I would like for you to make an appointment to read my review. Let's say 8:00 on a Monday? Oh, it's $19.99 just to read my review. Ok, we will have the brake diagnosis in about 45 min. Please wait...... read more

I came here after going to Walmart (oil change) and Costco(tire rotation) on a Saturday. Costco recommended I get a tire alignment. Good price but American Tire offered better price later time. Took time to get service but when finished. I notice my gear shift cover broken. I talked to front and he offered to put it back on but I have to pay for the product because he didn't know where to get it. He said it is normal wear an tear, but no problem with other places I was at during the day. He called the driver and asked what happened, he said it was slightly broken which I should of known and other store would point it out. Gave me excuse that it can happen with any service. He didn't offer to buy and get it delivered to my house. He said I go get it and they can install it. Didn't even tell me it was broken. Two star for no high price but didn't fix my concern. Update: I tried to ask for 30 minutes to get it fixed or covered, but he said it is not the team fault and it can happen while working on any car. This place need to improve its post customer service skills read more

They are quick, friendly, and thorough when they do checks, changes, and other services. Every experience has been straight forward and they help to find the best cost and quality. Regular or routine checks are always so informative and they even recommend when some parts need to be checked or changed. They sometimes even try to help me schedule out services so that I can get my affairs in order if they need to keep my car or when they can get parts for my requested service. The technicians are also great when providing a time frame and really do their best to get the services done as quickly and thoroughly as they can. I also get update calls for when my parts come in and when they are ready to start their work. Since they do not yet have a tracking feature on an app, I appreciate the time they put into calling me and getting me a heads up on my cars progress and updates. Aside from a dealership, I will only trust this Midas location to take care of my car, time, and wallet. read more

Visited their website. Clicked on their page that showed this coupon. Coupon shoes it's valid for 30 days. Went to the store that offered the promotion. Store manager said they won't accept. False advertising and bad business. read more

Talk to Jose, the manager. He's an excellent human being. Beyond fair quotes with professional follow thru. Go here and save time, money , and hassle read more

This is a great location. I've gone to many oil change places in Hawaii, NJ, NYC, and Ohio. This location is a hidden gem, they are very attentive and do not cheat you. They want to help you and will only service what they notice and need for the vehicle. read more

Midas was recommended to me from a friend and I'm so thankful for the recommendation! I've now been going to them for the last several years. Jose is amazing - awesome customer service. Very honest about what they can and cannot do. Highly recommend them! read more

Great service! Jose was very friendly and helped me fill up my coolant. He even taught me what to do for next time!

After paying a couple of unreliable mobile mechanics off Craigslist, I then realized I was having tons of noise from under my front suspension. I brought in to Jose who took the car for a drive to hear what i was hearing. He then lifted it up to see that almost every bolt of the part that the mobile mechanic has installed were all completely loose. They did my alignment for me which has never been done. And dramatically changed how the car drove. Honest opinions from the manager and Jose. They're on top of it. Thankful. read more

I had no appointment and they were able to accommodate me same day. I had my oil change changed within 40min. My gasket seal was broken and the Team was able to quickly work together on replacing it. Really great team work and customer service. I will be coming back for future business. Locally owned in Mission Valley I would recommend this location. Seems to be honest with the work they do. read more

This Midas location goes above and beyond! Excellent customer service and honest repair assessments! My daughter's car, we thought needed to have tires aligned/balanced, it turned out air pressure was just low! We have taken our car in multiple times, Jose is the BEST! Thank you for being such a wonderful person, Midas is very fortunate to have such an excellent employee! read more

Didn't have a yelp account back in 2014-15 when this happened but I do now. To sum the entire situation up, they blew up my brother's car. After they replaced the transmission for us, the car caught fire. While he was in it, and while he was literally driving it. read more

I love this Midas-- they have always been reliable, providing quality work and friendly service! Jose always greets me with a smile and the customer service here is stellar. They seem to run great operations, as waiting time to get what you need seems reasonable and efficient. They have a nice waiting area and coffee while you wait which is always appreciated! Thank you for all you do and taking good care of my car. I am a forever customer! read more

If you are a female and scared to get ripped off at a car shop. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE. They tried to sell me an new engine when it didn't need a new engine. DISHONEST PEOPLE, PLEASE BE CAREFUL. I got my vehicle fixed elsewhere. MIDAS IS A RIP OFF. read more

We moved to the area 5 years and looked for a reliable, capable, affordable, place to take our vehicles for repair work. We found such a place here at the Midas shop. Always impressed with not only the work done on the vehicles but with the service they provide. read more

I see a lot of people had the same experience I did here - a bunch of bays, maybe 8 or 10 - but only one or two in use! I went in for an oil change, since the sign says "SPEEDEE Oil Change". Well, apparently they didn't have fifteen minutes do change the oil. I went in around noon and they couldn't fit me in until the next day. Spoiler: BOTH oil change bays were empty! I went down the street to Qwik Lube and was done in 18 minutes. FU Midas, your customer service is crap. read more

Midas - They were so busy, they couldn't fit me in until the next day! Busy doing something other than oil changes, I guess. - Tires Near Me - San Diego, California

My engine splash shield broke and started dragging, but thankfully Midas on Friars fixed it immediately and for free. I can thank Tom and Logan enough for generously helping me in a jam. Excellent customer service! Highly recommend. read more

I've come here a few times for an oil change. They're pretty standard, staff is nice, quick service.. Until I brought my car into another Midas location. They told me that this location didn't change my filter on my last oil change! I can't believe how they could mess up on such a standard procedure unless they were intentionally trying to save costs.. Anyways, I won't be back! read more

I've always had excellent trustworthy service at this dealership. The owner Jose Is super awesome and has always done the best most fair work On my vehicle! If you need a go to spot on Friars - this is it! read more

Not much to say abiut the inside at car stops.. The waiting room was typical with a Keurig, water maxhine, and soda machine. Thet could always update to something more comfy and possibly clean the floors. The service was fast and accurate. They didn't try and hassle me on anything. They brought me in the workshop to see my tires and prove I needed new ones. I figured I did but glad they showed me. The pricing is in reason to a typical oil change. $39.99 The tires were price matched with Wal-Mart at $75 a piece. (I drive a small compact.) They were very professional and quick. I normally do all my service and maintenance with Meineke since they have certified mechanics, but there isn't any locations nearby. However, this place was up to par. I will return with my car and my husband's car for all our needs while here in California. **10% discount for military and college students read more

Horrible service. Here for 10 min no one greeted me, and 3 employees standing around. Guy In office Tom came out and didn't acknowledge me and said someone will be right one me. One of the 3 guys sitting around finally got up. People don't want to work anymore or even provide DECENT service. All good I'm just going to take my services elsewhere read more

I had a great experience here today getting my brakes done. The dealership wanted to charge me a small fortune for new brakes, but Jose ran a diagnostics test to make sure I even needed new brakes in case the dealer was trying to nickel and dime me. I did in fact need new brakes and Jose was very friendly and helpful during the process. He also fixed a tail light that was out on my boyfriend's car, who was there to pick me up while I waited for my brakes to be completed. I will absolutely be coming here again for any car mechanic needs. Thanks Jose! read more

I needed new breaks and an oil change. I got lucky and there was no one there. I was in and out in an hour. I was really impressed that they worked so efficiently even with the shop being so slow. Great customer service too! Both the owner and manager were a delight to talk to and made sure I understood what I needed. I didn't feel any sales pitch or pressure. Overall highly recommend this location! read more

Although not really located in a convenient spot parking usually isn't a problem. There's a limited number of spaces. The waiting room has a soda machine, a keurig with several flavors to choose from. For entertainment while you wait they offer several magazines and two separate TVs. The staff seems to be knowledgeable and always courteous. I feel confident when brining my vehicle not to get pressured with products or services not actually needed. The waiting room is sufficiently clean and tidy. A unisex restroom provides the proper amount of facilities for necessary bodily waste. I recommend bringing your vehicle to Midas for your regular and emergency maintenance and services. read more

What the fk. This uneducated douche picked up the phone and after I asked my question... he put me on hold, like he didn't know anything. 8 minutes later on hold watching the time go by on my phone . I just got hung up on instead. Wow. What pathetic customer service. Idiot. Don't waste your time. read more

I went in for an oil change. They said it includes fluid check and tire rotation. They were done so fast, so I asked why they didn't do tire rotation, They said oh wasn't needed. What about fluid check? Did that. Sure didn't seem like had time. My wiper fluid ran out soon after. I doubt they checked them.. False advertisement. I'll go to a quickie lube next time.. read more

Professional. Courteous. My brakes started making a bad sound one afternoon so I stopped in to see what my options were. I'd never been to Midas before so I fully expected to walk away with an idea of what to do next. They diagnosed the problem and offered solutions within minutes. They didn't try to pressure me into any repairs that weren't necessary. In fact they found a couple of online coupons for me to use that saved me some decent bucks. I had a belt replaced that was clearly worn and was done in about 90 minutes. I may have waited all of two minutes to be seen. This will be my new neighborhood car repair place. read more

I took my car in over the weekend expecting the worse dealing with some noisy annoying brakes. Vince was able to get me in right away and was transparent in the services recommended for my vehicle. Great communication makes for a happy customer! read more

***Alert***PRICE GOUGING occurs at this location. Called to get an estimate to uninstall/ install an after market catback exhaust (100%guarenteed flush fit for my make and model). This would consist of unscrewing 4 bolts, and 2 hanger hooks to uninstall & then obvious installing the new catback exhaust with 4 bolts and 2 hanger hooks. George on the phone told me $200! For any competent mechanic this would be a 45min - hour job MAX! I told him that was a rip off and he laughed as he hung up. Wolf Auto repair in Miramar did this exact job for $55!!!!!! Midas is out there trying to scam and take advantage of people who are uneducated with cars. They must charge $250/hr at that price or George is trying to take advantage of people. Never take your car to this location. From, One car enthusiast and owner to another! read more
